    MIKOTO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
    21st GRADUATION CEREMONY
[00:00] ---
    MIKOTO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
SIGN    Ice Hockey Club 1988 National Champions
[00:00] ---
    Congratulations!
[00:04] ---
    My original life, 1988.
[00:08] ---
    Kayo, Hiromi and Aya Nakanishi
    had disappeared,

[00:11] ---
    and then their bodies were found.
[00:14] ---
    I blamed myself for not being able
    to save any of them.

[00:19] ---
    I made an effort to forget about all of it.
[00:22] ---
    What was left
    was a gaping hole in my heart.

[00:29] ---
    There have been many fun things,
    sad things, successes and failures.
[00:35] ---
    Today you graduate elementary school,
[00:38] ---
    but there is still so much that's missing.
[00:41] ---
    That goes for me, too.
[00:43] ---
    And yet, I think filling up
    that missing something...
[00:47] ---
    is what life is!
SIGN    ERASED
[02:29] ---
    Hello.
[02:33] ---
    Who are you?
[02:34] ---
    I'm Satoru Fujinuma,
    a 5th-grader at Mikoto.
[02:36] ---
    I'm Kenya Kobayashi.
[02:38] ---
    I'm Hiromi Sugita.
[02:39] ---
    Have we met before?
[02:41] ---
    You're Aya Nakanishi, right?
[02:43] ---
    I hear you're good
    at playing the piano.
[02:46] ---
    Yeah, I'm pretty good.
[02:48] ---
    Have we met at piano class?
[02:50] ---
    No, that's not it...
[02:52] ---
    Hey, what are you reading?
[02:55] ---
    Oh, this?
SIGN    KING LEAR SHAKESPEARE
[02:56] ---
    Shakespeare.
[02:57] ---
    King Lear!
[02:58] ---
    I've only read Romeo and Juliet!
[03:01] ---
    My parents recommended the piano
    and Shakespeare to me.
[03:05] ---
    What are they talkin' about?
[03:08] ---
    You wanna get a little closer?
[03:11] ---
    I thought I saw you before!
[03:13] ---
    You're the kids who're always sneaking
    into that building across the river!
[03:18] ---
    The hideout...
[03:19] ---
    So it's totally in the open from here.
[03:21] ---
    Hideout?
[03:23] ---
    How childish.
[03:24] ---
    Y-Y-You...
[03:26] ---
    Don't call it childish.
[03:28] ---
    Boys are always sneaking around
    building "secret bases" and "hideouts."
[03:33] ---
    I bet you're playing
    at being superheroes, aren't you?
[03:35] ---
    D-Don't make fun of superheroes!
[03:38] ---
    Satoru!
[03:40] ---
    Well, I have to go.
[03:43] ---
    Bye!
[03:46] ---
    Wait!
[03:47] ---
    - Kazu?
    - Kazu?
[03:49] ---
    Huh?
[03:51] ---
    Wh-What do you want?
[03:52] ---
    Hideouts...
[03:55] ---
    show man's adventurous spirit!
[04:01] ---
    If you have free time, visit our hideout!
[04:03] ---
    Then you'll understand!
[04:05] ---
    You're all weirdos!
[04:12] ---
    Childish...
[04:15] ---
    Yesterday was fun, wasn't it?
[04:18] ---
    They're here after all.
[04:18] ---
    Can a girl even understand
    "adventurous spirit"?
[04:20] ---
    The gloves I left here
    and forgot about 18 years ago...

[04:21] ---
    It looked like she didn't.
[04:23] ---
    I don't like spending time
    on leveling up.
[04:25] ---
    That's what makes it fun.
[04:27] ---
    Hey, Satoru, Nakanishi should be
    going to the park soon.
[04:32] ---
    It's okay.
[04:33] ---
    I can see her from here.
[04:35] ---
    I see.
[04:36] ---
    Yesterday was a failure.
[04:39] ---
    But how can I get close to her?
[04:46] ---
    I had free time
    so I'm here to see your hideout.
[04:52] ---
    Welcome to our hideout!
SIGN    5th Grade, Class 4
[04:58] ---
    See you!
[04:59] ---
    Bye-bye!
[05:04] ---
    Are you going to see Aya again?
[05:06] ---
    Well, yeah.
[05:07] ---
    We'll both go to the hideout later.
SIGN    HOPE
[05:09] ---
    So see you later!
[05:12] ---
    Later, Sensei!
[05:14] ---
    You mean "goodbye"!
[05:15] ---
    It's strange to think
    of those two together.
[05:18] ---
    Then I guess this solves
    the Aya Nakanishi problem.
[05:22] ---
    Yeah.
[05:24] ---
    Um... Satoru...
[05:26] ---
    Kenya too... Thank you.
[05:30] ---
    I think getting rid of someone's
    "alone time" is a great thing.
[05:34] ---
    Since both of my parents work,
[05:37] ---
    the house is always empty
    when I come home, so I can understand.
[05:40] ---
    I was thrilled when you did it for me,
    but for Kayo and Aya, too.
[05:50] ---
    Hey!
[05:51] ---
    Let's go to the hideout!
    I'm sick of waiting.
[05:55] ---
    Huh? Where's Kazu?
[05:57] ---
    He went to meet Aya.
[05:59] ---
    Why?
[06:00] ---
    Why...
[06:01] ---
    Aya knows where the hideout is, right?
[06:04] ---
    Yeah, that's true, but...
[06:06] ---
    Well, whatever! Let's go!
[06:08] ---
    Y-Yeah!
[06:10] ---
    Goodbye, Sensei!
[06:17] ---
    Hurry up!
[06:18] ---
    There's no rush!
[06:20] ---
    Wait for me!
[06:24] ---
    That's right!
[06:26] ---
    Aya Nakanishi.
[06:28] ---
    Hiromi Sugita.
[06:30] ---
    And Kayo Hinazuki.
[06:32] ---
    He murdered the three of them
    the first time around,

[06:34] ---
    but this time,
    they're out of his target sight.

[06:37] ---
    Still, now that clues have been lost,
    will I be able to find him?

[06:41] ---
    See? Now he looks
    even more like a girl.
[06:45] ---
    Amazing, isn't it?
[06:46] ---
    Satoru...
[06:47] ---
    Is this the end of "playing detective"?
[06:51] ---
    Of course not. It's not over yet.
[06:56] ---
    In 2006, Mr. Sawada said
    Mom knew who the real killer was.

SIGN    COIN LAUNDRY
[07:03] ---
    I think it was someone
    Mom knew back in 1988.

[07:08] ---
    It's not like Sensei's candy,
    but after the killer lost his targets,

[07:12] ---
    I bet anything
    he's looking for a substitute.

SIGN    STAFF ROOM
[07:25] ---
    Move.
[07:31] ---
    Well, we're going to watch
    the ice hockey match.
[07:34] ---
    - Is Hamada gonna be in it?
    - Of course.
[07:36] ---
    Wow.
[07:38] ---
    Well, tell him I said good luck.
[07:40] ---
    - Sure!
    - See you later.
[07:44] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting!
[07:47] ---
    Have you noticed how Yanagihara
    has been alone a lot lately?
[07:51] ---
    Misato?
[07:52] ---
    She's kind of been
    on the outs with everyone
[07:54] ---
    ever since that business
    with the lunch money.
[07:57] ---
    I see.
[07:59] ---
    I'll try talking to her on Monday.
[08:01] ---
    Okay.
SIGN    March 15th 1988
[08:10] ---
    Thank you!
[08:19] ---
    I may be a little late today.
[08:21] ---
    That's fine, but call me when you know
    what time you'll be home.
[08:25] ---
    Sure. See you later!
[08:28] ---
    See you later, Satoru!
[08:32] ---
    Goodbye!
[08:33] ---
    We get to ride in Sensei's car!
[08:35] ---
    Really?
[08:36] ---
    We can go ahead,
    leaving you-know-who behind.
[08:40] ---
    Good idea!
[08:41] ---
    How can I start
    a conversation with her?

[08:41] ---
    Let's do it!
[08:48] ---
    A bus?
[08:56] ---
    Satoru...
[08:58] ---
    I hear Misato's the next person
    who's "alone"?
[09:00] ---
    Yeah, but...
[09:03] ---
    She may be heading
    for Wakaba Gymnasium.
[09:05] ---
    Really?
[09:07] ---
    Mr. Yashiro said he invited her
    to cheer on Hamada.
[09:11] ---
    Come to think of it, she was alone
    at the game last week too.
[09:14] ---
    Thank you!
[09:15] ---
    Want us to go with you?
[09:17] ---
    Nah, I think I'm better off on my own
    this time. And it's just a look-see.
[09:21] ---
    I see.
[09:23] ---
    If you're still playing detective,
    I want a full report tomorrow.
[09:26] ---
    Of course!
[09:28] ---
    If anything happens,
    come to the hideout!
[09:30] ---
    I will! See you later!
[09:31] ---
    - See you!
    - See you tomorrow!
[09:33] ---
    - See you!
    - Bye!
[09:35] ---
    See you!
[09:37] ---
    He makes a big deal out of it every day.
[09:39] ---
    I know.
[09:41] ---
    Even though we're going to
    see him tomorrow...
[09:46] ---
    It's colder in here than it is outside.
[09:50] ---
    Hamada!
[09:51] ---
    Go, go, Kouichi!
[09:53] ---
    Shut up, ugly! Just watch,
    with your mouth shut!
[09:55] ---
    We can say what we want!
[09:57] ---
    Kouichi! Watch your mouth!
[09:59] ---
    There'll be no dinner for you!
[10:01] ---
    You're not serious?
[10:10] ---
    There she is.
[10:12] ---
    And she is alone.
[10:14] ---
    All right! Start warming up!
[10:16] ---
    Okay!
[10:18] ---
    At any rate, the killer lost
    two targets at once.

[10:23] ---
    Is she just the person to make up for it?
[10:30] ---
    The bathroom...
[10:34] ---
    The game starts in five minutes!
[10:36] ---
    Right!
[10:39] ---
    It's taking her too long.
[10:42] ---
    EXIT
[10:49] ---
    I just went out for a sucker.
[10:51] ---
    What's wrong?
[10:52] ---
    The game's going to start.
[10:55] ---
    What are you doing here?
[10:58] ---
    U-Um...
[10:59] ---
    Uh, I wanted to talk to Misato.
[11:01] ---
    Misato?
[11:06] ---
    Huh?
[11:08] ---
    - Did Misato go outside?
    - Yeah.
[11:11] ---
    The game hasn't started yet.
SIGN    SHIRATORI FOOD PRODUCTS
[11:19] ---
    Yuuki's family truck?
[11:21] ---
    Sensei! There's something
    I need to check on right away!
[11:24] ---
    Help me!
[11:31] ---
    If this is true, we're talking a crime.
[11:33] ---
    We call it "playing detective."
[11:36] ---
    We pretend there's a kidnapper at large,
[11:38] ---
    then talk to and befriend girls
    who are alone a lot.
[11:43] ---
    It's supposed to be a precautionary
    measure against abductions.
[11:47] ---
    I get it.
[11:48] ---
    You may be playing, but it's effective.
[11:51] ---
    Thank you, Sensei.
[11:53] ---
    Satoru, your seat belt.
[12:01] ---
    Huh?
[12:02] ---
    Oh, it's been sticking lately.
[12:06] ---
    There!
[12:11] ---
    So you've noticed
    that Misato has been alone a lot lately.
[12:15] ---
    No, not until Hiromi
    brought it to my attention.
[12:18] ---
    Even so, I respect your spirit and drive.
[12:23] ---
    Really?
[12:24] ---
    But this time I used my difficulty
    in talking to her as an excuse,
[12:28] ---
    and as a result,
    Misato has become like bait.
[12:32] ---
    Bait, huh?
[12:34] ---
    You're pretty serious.
[12:36] ---
    So there's a flip side to your sudden
    friendly overtures with people recently.
[12:41] ---
    Yeah. I wanted to fill
    the hole in the heart.
[12:45] ---
    Other people's and my own.
[12:49] ---
    Crap. I just regurgitated
    Yashiro's own line.

[12:55] ---
    We have a lot in common, Satoru.
[12:56] ---
    That's exactly my philosophy in life.
[12:59] ---
    I intended to bring that up
    at the graduation ceremony
[13:01] ---
    ever since I was put
    in charge of sixth grade.
[13:05] ---
    It seems you regret
    using Misato as a lure,
[13:09] ---
    but there's no need to feel guilty
    or ashamed about it.
[13:14] ---
    The essence of good deeds
    and evil deeds is the same.
[13:17] ---
    They're both no more than a person's actions
    to make up for a defect in themselves.
[13:22] ---
    That's an extreme way of thinking.
[13:24] ---
    To get closer to someone recently,
    I've taken all kinds of measures.
[13:29] ---
    Sometimes I'm straightforward.
[13:30] ---
    Sometimes I throw a curve ball.
[13:32] ---
    I've even tried using
    what can be called "illegal moves."
[13:36] ---
    Boy, it's been fun.
[13:39] ---
    Um... You're talking about a girlfriend?
[13:42] ---
    Certainly, there are similarities
    with a romantic situation.
[13:46] ---
    I guess "filling the hole in your heart"
    is the commonality.
[13:51] ---
    Want a candy?
[13:56] ---
    Thanks, Satoru.
[13:57] ---
    But there is no candy in there.
[14:03] ---
    After all, this isn't my car.
SIGN    Episode 10 Joy
[14:21] ---
    What do you mean it isn't your car?
[14:23] ---
    Your happiest moment...
[14:26] ---
    Don't you find that gets
    updated again and again?
[14:29] ---
    My latest "happiest moment"
    happened today.
[14:32] ---
    Filling up that missing something
    in your heart is the finest moment.
[14:37] ---
    Finding what you're looking for
    and then obtaining it...
[14:41] ---
    The more difficulties there are, the greater
    the happiness when you overcome them.
[14:47] ---
    I don't get it.
[14:49] ---
    What's he talking about?
SIGN    HARASOKAI Dissolves fast
[14:51] ---
    Laxatives?
[14:52] ---
    Satoru, you lied to me about one thing.
[14:56] ---
    You said you're pretending
    there's a kidnapper,
[14:59] ---
    but you've actually confirmed there is one
    and now you're acting on it.
[15:03] ---
    I resisted that idea.
[15:06] ---
    I couldn't believe it.
[15:08] ---
    Rather, I didn't want to believe it.
[15:12] ---
    That someone was anticipating
    my thinking.
[15:24] ---
    Don't worry.
[15:26] ---
    Misato isn't in that car.
[15:30] ---
    The only person in that vehicle
    is the driver, Jun Shiratori's father.
SIGN    WILD CAMPING SITE
[15:38] ---
    I had no idea until that day
    I saw you tailing Aya Nakanishi.
[15:44] ---
    The day I dropped you guys off is the day
    I was going to carry out my plan.
[15:49] ---
    Still, it's funny, isn't it?
[15:51] ---
    Here you were, trying
    to snatch my prey away from me,
[15:54] ---
    and I seriously gave you
    advice on how to do it.
[15:58] ---
    That was the second time
    you prevented my plans.
[16:02] ---
    That's when I began to suspect
    it was more than coincidence.
[16:05] ---
    Misato was ostracized, so I encouraged her
    to go to the hockey game
[16:09] ---
    and then told Hiromi about it.
[16:12] ---
    Satoru, if you came, my suspicion
    would turn into conviction.
[16:17] ---
    That you're my enemy.
[16:19] ---
    I don't believe it.
[16:21] ---
    I waited for the right time, then gave
    Misato a drink laced with laxative.
[16:26] ---
    I'd ordered bentos
    from Shiratori beforehand.
[16:29] ---
    It can't be!
[16:30] ---
    It can't be!
[16:33] ---
    All of the pieces fit into place,
    just as I planned.
[16:37] ---
    This is my true form.
[16:41] ---
    By the way, I switched
    to this car right before coming.
[16:45] ---
    My standards for choosing a car
    are a little different from everyone else.
[16:49] ---
    I have several cars of the same make
    and color in the area,
[16:52] ---
    dummies that I can use
    at a moment's notice.
[16:55] ---
    Although this is the first time
    it's come in handy...
[16:58] ---
    I'm an idiot.
[17:09] ---
    It was so obvious.
[17:11] ---
    Kayo's going to be okay now.
[17:14] ---
    I just couldn't accept it.
[17:17] ---
    The name Manabu Yashiro
    was on Mr. Sawada's list of suspects, too.

[17:20] ---
    Jun Shiratori
    Seiichiro Shiratori
    Isao Ishidou
    Sachiko Fujinuma
    Junya Saitou
    Manabu Yashiro
    Shinji Sakashita
[17:21] ---
    It's just that my mom's name
    was on there too,

[17:24] ---
    so I disregarded the meaning of the list.
[17:27] ---
    I had so much trust in Yashiro
    that I rejected any doubts.

[17:34] ---
    But...
[17:37] ---
    the killer is right next to me...
[17:42] ---
    Yashiro!
[18:08] ---
    It's snowing, huh?
[18:18] ---
    That won't come undone.
[18:22] ---
    Game over.
[18:23] ---
    For you and me.
[18:38] ---
    Satoru, I still can't believe it.
[18:41] ---
    You thoroughly anticipated
    my plans and crushed them.
[18:45] ---
    To be honest, I'm stunned
    that you cornered me like this.
[18:52] ---
    It's like you've seen the future.
[18:58] ---
    I don't want any hard feelings,
    so let me just say this.
[19:02] ---
    You've interfered with my plans,
    but what I'm about to do is not for revenge.
[19:07] ---
    I truly do respect you.
[19:12] ---
    I want you to think of this
    as my sublimation
[19:14] ---
    for not being able to satisfy my desires.
[19:16] ---
    I thought you said
    it was game over for you, too!
[19:23] ---
    Satoru, you've won peace for this town.
[19:26] ---
    Isn't that what you wanted?
[19:29] ---
    And what I get to have is your death
    at my hands and for my sake.
[19:34] ---
    Yashiro! I won't die
    until I see you destroyed!
[19:39] ---
    That's what they call aiming too high.
[19:44] ---
    Yashiro! Bastard!
[19:47] ---
    You go to hell!
[19:53] ---
    Dammit! Dammit!
[19:55] ---
    I'm going to leave this town.
[20:01] ---
    Yashiro!
[20:03] ---
    I know your future!
[20:09] ---
    Crap...
[20:11] ---
    Cold!
[20:15] ---
    I can't...
[20:16] ---
    Crap!
